Atticus's Odyssey: Reincarnated Into A Playground

Chapter 130 Event

Atticus, Anastasia and Aurora headed downstairs of the mansion. Their rooms were located on the upper floor, with the rest of the facilities below.

As they approached the ground level, Atticus noticed that the rest of the family had already gathered, waiting for their arrival.

Avalon, Ember, and Caldor were all standing not to far away from each other, each impeccably dressed for the dayʼs occasion.

Although for someone of their status, they were all constantly well dressed, but one could tell that they had put extra effort into their attire today.

The trio turned to see them approaching. Avalonʼs gaze was immediately drawn to Anastasia breath taking form, making his heart skip a beat. Although, they have both been married for a while, Avalon still could not get used to her beauty.

After the incident with the Raven camp, they had mended their strained relationship and gotten even even more closer than before. Anastasia had been in a vulnerable state, and Avalon had provided her with comfort and support, deepening their bond.

Avalon immediately approached his wife gazing at her with a warm smile and complimented, ”You look absolutely breathtaking,”

Anastasiaʼs smile lit up the room as she basked in her husbandʼs praise.?A woman can never get tired of getting compliments from the one they love.

However, this tender moment was suddenly disrupted by an unexpected sound – ”yuck.”

Avalon turned to find Atticus looking at them with an exaggeratedly disgusted expression on his face. Avalon couldnʼt help but chuckle at the young manʼs reaction.

”You little rascal, youʼll understand when you have your own wife.” Avalon said, ruffling Atticusʼs hair and ruining Anastasiaʼs hour long effort, earning a glare from her.

Aurora chuckled at Atticusʼs predicament making Atticus grumbled trying to straighten his hair while walking towards Ember and Caldor.

During the last two weeks since the incident, Atticus had hardly seen Ember. Even during family dinners, she had always been absent always training alone, making everyone in the family worried.

Atticus had been avoiding meeting Ember due to the recurring night mares he always had. However, seeing her now made Atticus realize his foolishness.

Ember was a child, and he was not, so why was he avoiding her and acting like a clueless fool?

Atticus approached the duo, responding to Caldorʼs greeting. Caldor remained unchanged even during these problematic times. He had been trying his best to bridge the gap Ember had been trying to create.

Atticus looked Emberʼs stoic face in the eye and said, ”Hey.”

”Hey,” Ember replied with her characteristic subtle voice.

”Letʼs hang out after this,” Atticus suggested.

Ember was surprised at his forwardness. She was about to refuse, telling him she had to train. But when she saw the look in Atticusʼs eyes, her words froze.

He was giving her that look, the one he always had when he wasnʼt going to take no for an answer. With a reluctant thought, she nodded and said, ”Okay.”

Atticus smiled, but before he could respond, Caldor interjected, ”Donʼt leave me out!”

Caldor was shocked, Ember had actually agreed? When Atticus had asked her, he was sure she was going to say no.

Atticus turned and gave Caldor a wry smile.

Then he heard another more subtle voice by the side, ”Me too.” Atticus turned to see Aurora looking away shyly. It was obvious she wanted to come along.

”Sure, letʼs all hang out together,” Atticus smiled and agreed.

Caldor was enthusiastic, exclaiming, ”Awesome! I know the perfect place.” seemingly already planning their outing.

Atticus turned to see Avalon and Anastasia, who were alread done with whatever they were doing, approaching them.

”Letʼs go,” Avalon said.

Then the group started heading towards the Ravenstein hall.

Two weeks after the incident, once everything had settled down, the Ravenstein family decided to host an event to honor the youths who fought and survived the assault of the Obsidian Order.

The families who had lost their children would also be compensated, a gesture meant to show the familyʼs strength and resilience.

The Ravenstein Hall was brimming with attendees. The usual arrangement of chairs lined the hallʼs sides, creating a clear path leading to the thrones.

However, there was a slight difference this time. The space closest to the thrones, usually reserved for the most important members of the family, was now occupied by exquisitely dressed young individuals.
